1. Introduction

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

HISTORY Over a hundred years ago, the small 11 block Town of Strother straddled the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks. Today, that small town consists of 65.24 square miles and is known as the City of Lee's Summit. In the late 1800's, a man by the name of William B. Howard was drawn to this fertile, gently rolling prairie land with the dream of building a city. Today, nearly 93,000 residents have been enticed to this progressive, yet restful and family-oriented community atmosphere, with a unified dream to create a dynamic, vital city. From yesterday to today, the story of this once small town has been filled with the courage, dedication, and quiet determination of its citizens, making Lee's Summit an ideal city in which to live and work. On October 28, 1865, William B. Howard founded the Town of Strother by filing a plat containing the 11 blocks that currently encompass the downtown business district. At the time of incorporation, the population count stood at one hundred people. In November of 1868, the name was changed and the area incorporated as the "Town of Lee's Summit". Although the "Summit" portion of the name was obviously based on the fact the town's elevation is the highest point on the railroad between Kansas City and St. Louis, there are numerous opinions and theories on the origin of "Lee". According to one theory, the town was named after Civil War General Robert E. Lee, since incorporation took place shortly after the war and the majority of citizens migrated from the Southern states. However, another version suggests the town was named after a prominent early settler, Dr. Pleasant Lea. The discrepancy in the spelling of "Lea" has been attributed to railroad sign painters. Lee's Summit's most infamous citizen was Cole Younger, called "The Last of the Great Outlaws" by author Homer Croy. According to history, soldiers drove Younger to a life outside the law after his father's murder and subsequent robbery. While Union forces were enforcing Order #11, the command issued in 1862 ostensibly to burn homes belonging to those with Southern ties, Younger and his brothers were credited with saving some of the original homes within Lee's Summit, the most prominent of which belonged to William B. Howard. Order #11 helped to unify the transplanted southern population in Missouri and compelled Younger to join the Confederate guerrilla band known as Quantrill's Raiders. Cole Younger was arrested after an attempted bank robbery in Northfield, Minnesota. Following 25 years of imprisonment for his crimes, Cole Younger was paroled in 1901. Three years later, Younger returned to Lee's Summit where he lived as a model citizen until his death in 1916. His grave is located in the Lee's Summit Historic Cemetery. The Fire of 1885 demonstrated yet again the stamina personified by citizens in Lee's Summit. While most of the town's residents were attending Sunday morning church services, fire erupted in the downtown district, which consisted of dry, wooden buildings. A detailed account of the fire, as printed in the April 16, 1885, issue of The Lee's Summit Journal, stated the buildings burned "...like greased wood". Virtually the entire business district was destroyed and the loss aggregated at $87,000, with a total of 25 buildings consumed by the flames. However, the stalwart citizens took their losses in stride and promptly commenced to rebuild the town. Almost 30 years later, Mr. R. A. Long, a prominent Kansas City lumberman, began building his dream, which became a reality with the construction of Longview Farm. In 1912, Mr. Long purchased

approximately 1,700 acres in the southwest portion of Lee's Summit. Mostly self-sufficient, the farm included five major barn groups and 42 buildings. When completed and functional, Longview Farm became internationally known for the horses and livestock contained within its white rail fences and was one of only three dozen such showplace farms. The history of Lee's Summit abounds with the tragedies and triumphs of courageous people who have never failed in their dream of creating a city that will continually progress and prosper. Most importantly, Lee's Summit is comprised of dedicated people who never lose touch with the basic values that make a community livable. We feel Lee's Summit has lived up to the dreams of its forefathers.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

City Manager’s Fiscal Year 2013 Budget Message June 7, 2012 Mayor Randall Rhoads and Members of the City Council: I am pleased to present the proposed municipal budget for fiscal year 2012-2013 (FY13) for the City of Lee’s Summit. I want to thank the Budget Committee, Management Team, and budget support staff for their dedication and hard work in preparing this document. As in recent years, much thought and discussion throughout this year’s budget process has gone into the prioritization and allocation of resources, as general fund revenues remain essentially flat while expectations and demands for City services and programs continue to grow. I believe we have once again risen to the challenge of continuing to provide high quality services to the citizens of Lee’s Summit through careful examination of organization priorities and continual search for efficiencies within existing programs. Despite the continued sluggish economic conditions of late, the City will continue to move forward, posturing ourselves to attain the vision of the community set forth by both the City Council in their City Council Goals and Strategies and the citizens through the Lee’s Summit 360:Charting Tomorrow, the City’s long-range strategic plan. Among the top priorities funded in the FY13 budget are:       

Public safety, as both the Fire and Police departments will take important steps to improve their operations and provision of services to the community Public infrastructure with continued funding of road improvement, curb replacement, sanitary sewer line improvement, and water main rehabilitation. Sustainable development and processes, including focused redevelopment efforts New technologies that will be implemented throughout the organization to improve the delivery of City service in a number of areas Customer service enhancements with additional resources to improve public education and awareness and customer relationships Communication and citizen engagement will be improved with new tools to facilitate two-way communication between City Hall and reach a broader audience Performance Excellence, to continue pursuit of improved organizational operations through this multiyear initiative. FY13 will see the creation of the organization’s first business plan and development of a performance scorecard to monitor and share our progress in meeting the objectives of our new plan with you and the community.

The City’s continued recognition of the arts and culture and its importance to our community needs to be mentioned. Although not formally funded in the annual operating budget, important progress towards the recommendations of the recent Cultural Facilities Master Plan is anticipated for FY13. I look forward to the report of the new Cultural Arts Facility Task Force. These citizens are preparing specific recommendations regarding the short and long term implementation steps to build our cultural infrastructure.

2: Administrative Summary

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

In order to meet the financial challenges of presenting a balanced budget during these economic times of relatively flat revenue growth, several initiatives have been deferred. Namely two economic development planning studies that were tentatively planned to occur in FY13 have been removed from the proposed budget. These studies were to lay important groundwork in our redevelopment efforts along several areas of M-291. I will continue to monitor the financial situation through the new fiscal year, and it is my hope that a request for funding of these studies may be brought before you for consideration if and when the time is right based on the City’s general fund financial landscape. We are also aware of a potential $150,000 planning grant from MARC that may assist in our targeted M-291 corridor planning. As is prudent, the City typically budgets on conservative revenue assumptions, and moderate revenue growth in the coming fiscal year may make the funding of these important studies possible. Recap of Fiscal Year 2011-2012 (FY12) A look back at the many accomplishments of this organization over the past fiscal year reveals not only the impressive dedication of city staff, but also the importance of careful planning and execution in the use of public funds as a number of long range policy and planning decisions showed important results to our community. 

Public safety. In FY12, the City completed its four year funding commitment to move to a communityoriented policing program with expanded patrol districts. Twenty-one additional police officers were hired over the four year period, and patrol districts were increased from eight to ten to provide improved coverage and officer-community relationships. Results are already evident, as crime statistics for calendar year 2011 have dropped making Lee’s Summit one of the safest communities in the region. In addition, community-oriented policing was also instrumental in the Police Department recently receiving the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) Advanced Law Enforcement Accreditation in FY12. This coveted designation is considered the highest standard of excellence in law enforcement.

Public Infrastructure. The City continued to maintain and improve its infrastructure in FY12, devoting significant resources to our curb and sidewalk replacement programs as well as our annual street overlay and slurry seal programs. These programs are funded through voter-approved bond monies. In addition, a new Todd George Parkway extension was opened and improvements made to Douglas Street.

Water Utilities Strategic Plan. This long-range strategic planning project included an assessment of the department and its ability to meet customer expectations and the development of a strategic plan to ensure that those expectations are met with the programs and services provided by Water Utilities in alignment with the rates. FY13 will see the start of implementation of this well-documented roadmap to fiscal sustainability for the utility.

Economic Development. Both economic development and redevelopment received attention in FY12 with two important efforts being initiated: the annexation of Unity Village and the development of an M150 Master Plan. The City, in cooperation with the Unity Village School of Christianity, approved the annexation and development of approximately 300 acres of land south of Colbern Road. The property contains an estimated 2.2 million square feet capacity for ‘Class A’ and other commercial-oriented development upon full build-out. The southern side of the City also received much attention this year, as the Planning Department in conjunction with a citizen task force and with significant input from the community spent much of FY12 creating the Lee’s Summit M-150 Sustainable Corridor Vision and Framework Plan. This plan, though still pending approval, is intended to establish a guiding vision and policy framework for the M-150 Corridor that will encourage high quality, well-coordinated, and more sustainable development within the planning area over time.

Sustainability. This year, a community-wide Sustainability Action Plan was adopted. The goal of the plan is to improve the community’s existing high quality of life through focused investments in energy efficiency; transportation; land use; water conservation and stormwater management; waste reduction and management; and education, outreach and advocacy. These investments will result in a Lee’s Summit with enhanced property values; reduced operations and maintenance costs in both homes and businesses; improved neighborhood health and safety for residents of all ages; and balanced consideration of the effects future development will have on the economy, community, and environment. The study was funded in part by a federal Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant. The City Council also approved funding for a Regional Transit Plan education program. The education program will provide information about the benefits of developing a regional commuter rail service and the proposals envisioned for our community and areas in eastern Jackson County.

Cultural Arts Master Plan. The City funded a Cultural Facilities Master Plan study in FY12. The plan evaluated space needs of the arts and cultural community in Lee’s Summit; it provides a preliminary space plan and capital budget for recommended facilities and offers recommendations for the operations and sustainability of those facilities. This plan, whose initiation stems from the City’s Cultural Arts Master Plan, has provided new direction to the Arnold Hall project and support for improvements to the new amphitheater at Legacy Park. As mentioned previously, a Cultural Arts Facility Task Force is working on implementing this plan.

Technology. The FY12 fiscal year will see the launch of the new, long-awaited Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform, titled Evolution C3. This project includes more customer-friendly applications both internally and externally in areas of finance, procurement and water utility billing. Additional improvements will be added in FY13 for the payroll and budgeting functions. Enhanced technology was also brought to the public safety departments, as an emergency services radio upgrade was made with voter-approved bond funds.

FY12 was clearly a busy year for the organization, and I am pleased with progress made in many areas despite continuing financial pressures, as we continue to plan for our future while addressing our needs for today with quality services. Fiscal Year 2013 Highlights As mentioned, the FY13 budget continues to advance the Mayor and City Council’s and the community’s priorities. Even within tight revenue constraints, funding is provided for the following specific projects or programs:  

     

Public Safety: Fire Department Management Audit/Accreditation process ($50k); new Police Training Facility to open in FY13 (multi-year total project cost: $6.1M) Public infrastructure (FY13 budgeted amounts): Curb replacement ($4.2M); pavement management ($3.6M); sidewalk ($0.8M); sanitary sewer line improvements ($2.4M); and water main rehabilitation ($1.5M) Sustainable Development: Transit-oriented development study ($10k); Rock Island Railroad Coalition efforts ($35k) Technology: ERP (multi-year total project cost: $2.0M); Windows 7 migration ($30k) Communication and Citizen Engagement: Web-based citizen engagement tool ($13.2k); comprehensive citizen survey ($25k); cable channel upgrades including closed captioning ($19k) Performance Excellence: Organization business plan ($28k) Arts and Culture.

Our community has been successful in addressing short-term issues while continuing to look ahead at future opportunities. The FY13 funding priorities support this approach to resource management. Overall Budget Summary The City’s total budget is composed of over 75 active funds. The overall FY13 budget is $177.6 million. Excluding inter-fund transfers, it is $160.6 million. The $177.6 million is a 9.4% ($18.5M) decrease from the adopted FY12 budget. This decrease is primarily due to a $20.5M drop in capital project fund budgets.

General Fund The General Fund accounts for the traditional operational activities of the City, such as police and fire protection, street maintenance, planning, codes, court and general administration of the City. For FY13, projected revenues in this fund of $59.6M (inlcuding one-time revenues) exceed recommended expenditures of $59.4M by $129,031. General Fund Summary: Revenues (less 1-time): Expenditures: Net: One-Time: Revenues Expenditures Final Net

The net savings will be applied to the general fund reserve balance, raising the projected year end balance. Revenue Projections The primary support for general services comes from diverse revenue sources such as property taxes, sales taxes, and utility franchise taxes. Combined, these major revenue sources comprise approximately 78% of all general fund revenues. The balance of revenues is derived from user charges, fines and forfeitures, investment income, intergovernmental revenues and miscellaneous fees and charges. In previous years, these revenue sources experienced steady growth allowing the City to maintain and in some service areas expand the level of service. Full recovery from the recent economic downturn did not occur in FY12 as property taxes remained stagnant and even experienced slight decline in some areas. Modest growth was experienced in sales taxes revenues but mild weather conditions for

much of the year left franchise tax revenues below budget. Overall, for FY13, general fund revenues are projected to be $59,566,007; this level is 1.4% above FY12 budget and 3.3% above FY12 year-end estimates. Property Tax The City’s largest general fund revenue source is property taxes. Property taxes are projected to end FY12 at $16,709,837 which is $628,377 or 3.6% under budget. A decline in assessed valuation for Jackson and Cass counties in 2011 resulted in reduced property taxes in FY12. Though the City is allowed to rollup the tax levy in such circumstances to remain revenue neutral, a voluntary property tax rollback was chosen by the City Council that was not budgeted in FY12. For FY13, a levy rollup to recover the lost revenue is projected. Overall, property taxes (with the rollup) are projected to be $17,433,405 which is $723,566 or 4.3% above FY12 year end estimates. We are required to present this levy rollup in our adopted budget in order to give this matter further consideration later in the fiscal year. Franchise Tax Franchise taxes are the second largest general fund revenue source. The City grants certain franchises for public utilities and receives a gross receipts fee of 7% for natural gas, telecommunications, and electric and 5% for cable television. Franchise tax revenue is projected to end the current year under budget by $1,287,347 or 8.3% due primarily to mild weather conditions. During FY13, the following franchise tax revenues are projected: Natural Gas Telephone Electric Cable Total

$2,171,581 3,687,955 6,912,619 1,370,806 $14,142,961

$2,656,964 3,775,129 6,785,124 1,179,529 $14,396,74 6

22.4% 2.4% -1.8% -14.0% 1.8%

As indicated in the above table, franchise tax revenues are projected to increase slightly from the current fiscal year. Sales Tax The third largest general fund revenue source is sales taxes. General fund gross sales tax receipts are projected to come in at the end of FY12 approximately 6.1% over budget at $12,659,136. For FY13, sales taxes are projected to be $14,213,657, an increase of $1,554,521 or 12.3% over FY12 year end. Several factors contribute to this estimate. First, late in FY12 the Summit Woods TIF will be closed and sales taxes of approximately $1million previously considered Economic Activity Taxes (EATs) and diverted from the general fund will now be paid into the general fund in FY13. In addition, new growth is anticipated both at the Summit Fair shopping center and in the Longview area resulting in additional new sales taxes. Base sales taxes are assumed to increase by 2.5% on average. License, Permits & Fees The Licenses, Permits & Fees category are expected to end FY12 at $1,137,100 which is under budget by $13,648 or 1.2%. Housing starts and new development continue to be slow to recover, although code inspection fees are projected to end the year 41.6% over budget at $467,130 due to an increase in housing inspections related to hail storms.

2: Administrative Summary

For FY13, licenses, permits and fees are projected to be $1,142,674. This is $3,043, or 0.3% over FY12 year end projection. Motor Vehicle Tax The Motor Vehicle Tax category is comprised of three components: (1) motor vehicle fuel taxes, (2) sales taxes, and (3) license and transfer fees. The category is projected to end FY12 at $2,904,892, which exceeds budget by $195,983 or 7.2%. Motor vehicle fuel tax is collected based on census figures. As a result of the latest census, in January this revenue source experienced an approximately 17% increase from Fiscal Year 2010-2011 (FY11). Motor vehicle sales taxes were strong in FY12 versus prior year and are projected to end the year at $455,939, 8.3% over FY11. In this revenue stream however, due to recent legislation, an approximately 24% drop is expected in FY13 to $346,514. Overall in this category, FY13 revenues are estimated at $2,975,612, or 2.4% over FY12 year end. Payments for General & Administrative (G & A) The Water Utilities, Solid Waste and Airport G & A payments to the general fund in FY13 will decrease again from FY12 from $1,346,999 to $846,350 due to a new cost allocation method. One-Time Revenues In FY13, the general fund will receive approximately $300,000 in back taxes that were paid to another jurisdiction in error. Additionally, the fund will receive a $750,000 payment from the Gamber Center fund as scheduled repayment of funding loaned during construction. This payment is the third of four scheduled payments. In summary, FY12 general fund revenues are projected to end the year under budget by $1,041,244 (1.8%) primarily due to the voluntary property tax rollback that was not budgeted and slower than anticipated franchise taxes due to unusual weather conditions. The FY13 general fund revenue budget is $1.9 million (3.3%) over FY12 year end projections and $0.8 million (1.4%) over FY12 budgeted revenues. We have been cautious in our projections, and this anticipated growth level is realistic given the current economic outlook for the coming year. Expenditures The general fund accounts for expenses in nine departments of the City. Public safety (Police and Fire) and Public Works (PW Operations and PW Engineering) budgets comprise 78% of the total general fund budget as illustrated below. Total general fund expenses are projected to end the current fiscal year at $58.3 million, or $498,463 (0.8%) under budget. A mild winter produced savings of over $200,000 in the Public Works Operations budget. Some of these savings were offset, however, by several significant Law Department expenses associated with the Unity Village annexation and litigation against the City. The majority of the FY12 savings are from personal services vacancies savings experienced during turnover, reduction in the Police workforce, or from budgeted but unfilled positions. 5%

Including this increase, personal Utilities 4% services salary costs are budgeted at $29,925,545 for FY13. Fuel 71%  Health insurance premium increases were budgeted with a Capital Outlay Transfers 10% increase based on preliminary figures, as the City recently switched carriers and is gathering new claims experience data.  FY13 budget includes the implementation of Phase 2 of a recent compensation and benefit study. This implementation is a modified approach from recommendations in the study and is anticipated to be effective January 1, 2013. Only costs for non-represented employees have been included in the budget due to the uncertainty of the outcome of ongoing discussions with represented groups. 5 Year Outlook The City monitors the long-term financial health of the general fund through the updating and review of the City’s 5-Year General Fund Model. It is through this model that the City’s Management Team can evaluate current trends and see the long-term implications of various policy or expenditure decisions. Below is an abbreviated version of the model using moderate revenue and expenditure assumptions that include 3% property tax growth and 2%-3% sales tax growth in the out years.

Another important factor monitored throughout the budget process and the fiscal year is the general fund balance. The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) contends that, “it is essential that governments maintain adequate levels of fund balance to mitigate current and future risks (e.g., revenue shortfalls and unanticipated expenditures) and to ensure stable tax rates. Fund balance levels are a crucial consideration, too, in long-term

financial planning.” To that end, in 1992 the City established as policy to ‘maintain a minimum fund balance of 20% of expenditures.’ The tables to the right illustrate the projected fund balance levels through Fiscal Year 2016-2017 (FY17) given moderate revenue growth. An additional 5% ‘Economic Opportunity Fund’ reserve was also established beyond the 20%. The model projects that given the assumptions employed, the general fund will have substantially restored that additional 5% balance which has been recently depleted. The assumptions in the model will be watched closely to determine their accuracy. If circumstances are altered, adjustments will be made accordingly.

Water Utilities:  Vacuum Excavator, $44,500  Toughbooks (ITS), $7,000 Total Expansions - All Funds: $424,091

Other Funds A number of significant services, projects, and programs are accounted for in funds other than the general fund. Following is a summary of the FY13 budgets for the major non-general funds. Water Utilities Fund The Water Utilities Fund is the second largest fund of the City next to the general fund and comprises 20% of the City’s overall budget. FY13 expenditures are budgeted at $35,807,541 or 2.6% over FY12 budget of $34,888,395. The Water Utilities Department serves over 34,000 customers. The total water supply of 21.5 million gallons per day (MGD) includes 14 MGD from Kansas City, Missouri and 7.5 MGD from Independence, Missouri. Water demands reached a historical max day high in 2003 of 25.5 MGD. In 2009, max day demand was 15.5 MGD. The City of Lee’s Summit and Little Blue Valley Sewer District have developed a contractual agreement for ongoing treatment and pumping within the Little Blue Valley drainage basin to accommodate existing and future customers within Lee's Summit. In order to maximize capacity of the sanitary sewer system, Water Utilities continues to focus on Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) reduction programs. In FY12, the department underwent an extensive strategic planning process. With input and feedback from a community advisory group, the utility’s strengths and opportunities for improvement emerged to help guide future decisions and practices. High marks were received by the utility in comparison to other Kansas City metropolitan area utilities and to accepted industry standards for product quality, customer satisfaction, operation resiliency and water resources adequacy. The assessment also revealed areas of need within the department. While all of the areas are important to address, two opportunities for improvement emerged as the most critical to address now: infrastructure stability and a rate management policy. The department has already begun work on these two important areas. Also included in the report was a recommendation for the City to adjust the water and sewer rate to help fund future system improvements and increased operating costs. So on December 15, the City Council approved the City’s first water and sewer rate increase since 2006 (sanitary sewer rates remained unchanged.) The act was an important first step in the implementation of the strategic plan and in ensuring the long-term sustainability of the utility. Parks and Recreation Funds The Parks and Recreation budget consists of 11 separate funds to address the goals and objectives of the department. A significant factor in the development of these goals comes from the “Legacy for Tomorrow and Beyond” plan. The citizen-based plan identifies the park and recreation needs for 10-year periods. In 2005, the Parks sales tax was extended for an additional ten years at a rate of 0.25%, a reduction of one-eighth cent became effective April 1, 2008. The sales tax is used to fund the “Legacy for Tomorrow and Beyond” master plan, as well as Gamber Center improvements.

2: Administrative Summary

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Parks operational fund budgets for FY13 include:      

Gamber Center: $391,561 Legacy Park Community Center; $1,890,168 Harris Park Community Center; $1,379,690 Parks & Recreation: $3,144,429 Aquatics: $655,752 Cemetery: $238,436

In total, Parks and Recreation’s budgeted expenditures in the operating funds are $7,700,036 representing a 0.8% increase over FY12 budget. Solid Waste Management Fund The Solid Waste Management Fund accounts for revenues and expenses related to the City's Resource Recovery Park. For FY13, budgeted expenditures are $3,203,130 or 10.8% above FY12 budget. The increase is primarily due to a scheduled Postclosure Expense transfer of $175,000 and the introduction of a new Public Disposal Area in FY13. The Resource Recovery Park, which operates on a six-day per week schedule, encompasses an area of approximately 275 acres including a 80 acre sanitary landfill, a four acre yard waste composting facility, a one acre drop-off recycling center, and a Household Hazardous Waste disposal area. An additional 40 acres of the site is set aside as a soil borrow area while the remainder of the property serves as a buffer from the abutting property owners. Tipping fees for both municipal solid waste and yard waste received at the Resource Recovery Park, as well as the sale of compost and mulch, which is produced at the yard waste facility, generate fund revenue. Governed by state law, as well as City ordinance, yard waste cannot be placed in the sanitary landfill. Although no fees are charged for dropping off recyclables at the Recycling Center, the fund does generate limited revenue from the sale of specific recyclable items. This facility is subsidized from the Solid Waste Fund. In FY13, a new program will be introduced to divert valuable material from the waste stream at the Public Disposal Area (PDA). The mixed materials collected will be sold to a hauler. Carpet and padding will be picked up by a local vendor. Clean wood will be diverted to create mulch. Scrap metal will be sold to a local vendor. The FY13 budget contains the purchase of a mini-excavator ($87,460) to implement this program. Lee’s Summit Municipal Airport The Airport Operating Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for all revenues and expenses related to the municipally owned airport. For FY13, expenditures are budgeted at $8,335,373, a 14.1% increase from FY12 budget due primarily to anticipated federal grants associated with planned runway expansion. The Lee's Summit Municipal Airport is designated by the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) as a reliever airport for the Kansas City metropolitan area and as such is designed to reduce congestion at larger air carrier airports by providing general aviation pilots with alternate landing facilities. It is further classified as a general aviation utility airport serving planes with gross weights of less than 12,500 pounds and landing speeds less than 121 knots. The airport is equipped with two runways: a 4,014 foot North/South (18-36), and a 3,800 foot Crosswind (11-29). Airport fund revenue is generated through the sale of aviation fuel, navigational charts and pilot supplies, the leasing of 75 tie-down spaces, 40 open T-hangar spaces and 112 enclosed hangar spaces and six ground leases for private hangars.

This FY13 capital project funds amount of $40,908,068 represents a 33.4% decrease of the FY12 budget level of $61,444,682 due to the completion or reprioritization of a number of projects. More information on the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is available on our website (http://cityofls.net/Development.aspx.) Summary In summary, we are ready to face the challenges of the next fiscal year. Resources are limited, and there are many challenges that face this community. There are also many opportunities to continue building a stable future. The best environment for success is one that is based on shared responsibility and a team approach between the elected official and professional staff. We know that the Mayor and City Council are looking ahead with us and wanting the same positive results. The budget presented to you this evening includes some exciting new initiatives while postponing other studies that address important redevelopment needs of the City. This prioritization process, though difficult at times, is necessary to ensure we live within the constraints of our available resources. The development of the City’s first business plan that began with focus groups and input from the community and elected officials and included a Management Team retreat in May 2012 will be a great new asset for the organization in future budgeting and financial prioritization processes. I look forward to your continued input and involvement in that process as we create a roadmap for the next five years.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Citizen Based Strategic Planning in Lee’s Summit, Missouri Over the last forty years, the City of Lee’s Summit has grown into one of the largest cities in the Kansas City Metropolitan area. This growth has been effectively managed not only through the leadership provided by the Mayor and City Council, but also through the vision and goals established by the citizenbased Lee’s Summit: 21st Century strategic planning process in 1993 and later updated in 1998. Many of the things that have come to mark the high quality of life in our community and the excellence of service from the City were a result of these processes. These include new City facilities such as the police headquarters and City Hall, and new boards and commissions that help guide such community initiatives as the arts and human relations. As the goals from the 1993 and 1998 21st Century Strategic Plans have now been accomplished, the Mayor and the City Council requested that a new long-term Strategic Plan be established, which would serve as a guide for the future long-term growth and sustainability of Lee’s Summit. With facilitation from the National Civic League (NCL), a highly diverse group of individuals from around the Lee’s Summit community gathered together to formulate this plan over an 11 month period. These individuals worked together to create a plan that would serve the common good of every Lee’s Summit citizen. As the first step in this process, an Initiating Committee was assigned four primary tasks: selecting the project name, identifying potential stakeholders who would have the task of creating the strategic plan, finding a location for the meetings, and establishing organizational committees. On September 16, 2008, the Stakeholders Committee kicked off one of the largest strategic planning processes that the National Civic League has ever undertaken. This group of citizens worked together every three weeks for eight months to produce a strategic plan that would outline the needs and expectations for the Lee’s Summit community over the next 10 - 15 years. Through hours of open debate, discussion, and collaboration among stakeholders, six Key Performance Areas were identified as the main areas of emphasis for the strategic plan. The plan is divided into six key performance areas (KPA): Economic Development, Education, Health and Human Services, Local Government, Quality of Life, and Transportation. Due to the dedication and cooperation of the 202 stakeholders of Lee’s Summit 360° and their ability to maintain free and open dialog, a comprehensive long-term strategic plan was created for the common good of the community. On March 31, 2009, the entire Lee’s Summit 360° committee was able to reach a consensus on the final plan. Throughout the following summer, the City Council and the CoChairs of each KPA worked together over several City Council meetings to create the final report that serves as the long term strategic plan of the City. On August 6, 2009, the City Council unanimously approved a resolution adopting the Lee’s Summit 360°: Charting Tomorrow as the long term strategic plan for the City of Lee’s Summit.

FIVE YEAR GENERAL FUND MODEL The City of Lee’s Summit uses a five year financial model for long range financial planning. The use of the model helps predict financial outcomes for a variety of different budgeting scenarios. The five year model includes both revenues and expenditures by category for the general fund departments. During the budget process this model is presented to the City Council to elicit discussion and budgetary direction. The model is very fluid and changes regularly as new information becomes available. The table above is a condensed version of the model presented to the Budget Committee near the end of GENERAL FUND BALANCE FY08 Actual Total revenues Total expenditures Revenues - Expenditures

The priorities shall be the basis for which the Department Directors then prepare individual Program Budget requests for the upcoming year. The City Manager and Department Directors will meet to present and discuss their respective budget requests at least two months prior to the beginning of the new fiscal year. They will make adjustments as necessary to meet the overall budget goals and funding levels of the City. Budget Adoption The City Manager and Department Directors will submit their combined budget proposal to the Budget Committee one month prior to adoption. The Mayor and City Council will review the proposed budget draft during the Work Session preceding the meeting of adoption. The City Council shall publish in one or more newspapers in the City a general summary of the budget and a notice stating: 1) the times and places where copies of the message and budget are available for inspections by the general public; and 2) the time and place, not less than two weeks after such publication, for a public hearing on the budget. Adoption of the budget will be by passage of the budget ordinance by the City Council and approval by the Mayor, as provided by law. The budget shall provide a complete financial plan of all city funds and activities for the ensuing fiscal year and, except as required by law or this Charter, shall be in such form as the City Manager deems desirable or the Council may require. The budget must be balanced, in which expenses do not exceed revenues. In no event shall the total proposed expenditures exceed the estimated revenues to be received plus any unencumbered cash reserves estimated to be on hand at the beginning of the budget year.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri (the City) was incorporated in 1868 and covers an area of approximately 64 square miles in Jackson and Cass Counties, Missouri. Lee’s Summit is a charter city operating under an elected Mayor-City Council form of government. The City Administrator is the chief administrative officer of the City. The City provides services to more than 70,000 residents in many areas including law enforcement, fire protection, water and sewer services, community enrichment and development, and various social services. Educational services are provided by separate governmental entities. The accounting and reporting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to local governments. The following represent the more significant accounting and reporting policies and practices of the City. The Financial Reporting Entity The City is governed by an elected eight-member council and a mayor. As required by GAAP, these financial statements present the City of Lee’s Summit (the primary government). The following component unit is included in the City’s reporting entity because of the significance of its operational and financial relationship with the City. Blended Component Unit The following legally separate entity is a component unit which is, in substance, a part of the City’s general operations. This component unit provides services almost entirely to the primary government and provides services which almost exclusively benefit the primary government. Data from this unit is combined with data of the primary government for financial reporting purposes. The Lee’s Summit, Missouri Municipal Building Authority (the Authority) is a not-for-profit corporation incorporated under the laws of the state of Missouri on August 13, 1994. The Authority is governed by a three-member board appointed by the City Council. The Authority was established to promote, acquire, develop, construct, own and lease facilities within the City which are approved by the City Council for the purpose of promoting the economic, social, industrial, cultural and commercial growth and for the general benefit of the City and its residents. Administration of its various programs is performed by City employees. Although it is legally separate from the City, the Authority is reported as if it were part of the primary government because its sole purpose is to finance and construct the City’s public buildings. Separate financial statements for the Authority are not prepared. Basis of Presentation The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, equities, revenues and

41 | P a g e


3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

expenditures or expenses. The various funds are grouped by type in the general purpose financial statements. The following fund types and account groups are used by the City. Governmental Fund Types The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than expendable trust or major capital projects) requiring separate accounting because of legal or regulatory provisions or administrative action. The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of, principal, interest and fiscal charges on long-term obligations other than obligations payable from the operations of Proprietary Fund Types. Capital Project Funds are used to account for financial resources segregated for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities other than those financed by Proprietary Fund Types or Expendable Trust Funds. Proprietary Fund Types Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations which provide a service to the general public and are financed primarily by user charges from such services. Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department to other departments of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis. Fiduciary Fund Types Expendable Trust Funds are used to account for assets held in trust by the City for others. The City’s Expendable Trust Funds include the Entitlement Fund. Account Groups The General Fixed Assets Account Group is established to account for all fixed assets of the City other than those accounted for in the Proprietary Fund Types. Construction in progress, which recognizes the value of assets not completed, is also included in this fund. The General Long-Term Debt Account Group is established to account for all long-term indebtedness of the City except that accounted for in the Proprietary Fund Types. Basis of Accounting The accounting and financial reporting applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All Governmental Fund Types and Expendable Trust Funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and

42 | P a g e


3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by all Governmental Fund Types, Expendable Trust Funds and Agency Funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined, and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. The City considers property taxes as available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. A one-year availability period is used for revenue recognition for all other Governmental Fund revenues. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. Principal and interest on general long-term debt are recorded as fund liabilities when due or when amounts have been accumulated in the Debt Service Fund for payments to be made early in the following year. Those revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, franchise taxes and interest. Sales taxes collected and held by the state at year-end on behalf of the City also are recognized as revenue. Fines, licenses and permits are not susceptible to accrual because, generally, they are not measurable until received in cash. All Proprietary Fund Types are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of these funds are included on the balance sheet. Fund equity (i.e., net total assets) is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components. Proprietary Fund Type operating statements present increases (e.g., revenues, non-operating revenues and operating transfers in) and decreases (e.g., expenses, non-operating expenses and operating transfers out) in net total assets. The accrual basis of accounting is utilized by the Proprietary Fund Types. Under this method, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. The City does not apply Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) statements issued after November 30, 1989 for its Proprietary Funds. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents include investments with original maturities of less than three months. Other Taxes and Revenues Recognized state shared taxes, such as motor, gas and liquor taxes, represent payments received during the current fiscal period.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Federal and state grant aid is reported as revenue when the related reimbursable expenditures are incurred. Unrestricted aid is reported as revenue in the fiscal year the entitlement is received. Charges for services are generally susceptible to accrual and are recorded as revenue when earned. Licenses, fees, fines, forfeitures and other revenues are generally not susceptible to accrual and are recorded when received in cash. Inventories Inventories, which primarily consist of water line maintenance materials, are valued at cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The costs of Governmental Fund Type inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. Prepaid Insurance Prepaid insurance represents the payment of insurance premiums for coverage that benefits more than one fiscal period. The premium amounts are amortized over the policy periods. Deferred Bond Issue Costs and Unamortized Bond Discount Deferred bond issue costs and unamortized bond discount are amortized over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment owned by the Proprietary Fund Types are stated at actual or estimated historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Contributed assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the time received. Assets acquired through capital leases are recorded in the appropriate property, plant and equipment accounts and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Amortization of assets recorded under capital leases is included within Proprietary Fund Type depreciation expense. Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows: Buildings Plant and water/sewerage systems Machinery and equipment

20–40 years 35–75 years 3–15 years

It is general practice to charge maintenance and repairs to expenses. Major expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

44 | P a g e


3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Cost of assets sold or retired and the related amounts of accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of sale or retirements, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the general purpose financial statements. General Fixed Assets General fixed assets have been acquired for general governmental purposes. Assets purchased are recorded as expenditures in the Governmental Fund Types and capitalized at actual or estimated historical cost in the General Fixed Assets Account Group. In the case of gifts or contributions, such assets are recorded in General Fixed Assets Account Group at fair market value when received. Certain improvements, including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems and lighting systems, have not been capitalized. No depreciation is provided on general fixed assets. Interest Expenditures Expenditures for interest on general long-term debt are accounted for in the year of payment. Compensated Absences Under the terms of the City’s personnel policy, City employees are granted vacation and sick leave in varying amounts. In the event of termination, an employee is paid for accumulated vacation days up to the equivalent of two years’ vacation (maximum of six weeks). Employees are paid for one-eighth of accumulated sick leave upon termination if they have five or more years of employment with the City. All employer related costs of vacation and sick leave are accrued and recorded when earned. Only the current portion of accrued vacation and sick leave is recorded in the Governmental Fund Types, and the remainder of the liability is reported in the General LongTerm Debt Account Group. All employer related costs of accrued vacation and sick leave in the Proprietary Fund Types is recorded entirely within those funds. Budgetary Procedures The reported budgetary data represents the final approved budget after amendments as adopted by the City Council. Amendments to the original budget were not material, and appropriations lapse at year-end. The basis of accounting is the same for both budgeting and GAAP reporting purposes. The City Council utilizes the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the general purpose financial statements. (1) Prior to the beginning of the fiscal year, the City Administrator submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. The operating budget provides a complete financial plan of all funds and activities for the upcoming fiscal year. In no event shall the total proposed expenditures exceed the estimated

45 | P a g e


3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

revenues to be received plus any unencumbered cash reserves estimated to be on hand at the beginning of the budget year. (2) Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments. (3) Prior to July 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department and program. Department heads may make transfers of appropriations within their departments. Upon written request by the City Administrator, the Council may, by ordinance, transfer part or all of any unencumbered appropriation balance from one department to another. The legal level of budgetary control is the department level. Although the City is legally required to prepare budgets for all funds, there is no legal requirement to report on those budgets. Therefore, the Combined Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget and Actual presents a comparison of budget and actual for only the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Fund and the Expendable Trust Fund. All special revenue funds have annual appropriated budgets except for the Federal Emergency Management Measures Fund (FEMA). The FEMA Fund is activated only when the City is declared a state or federal disaster area. Capital projects are budgeted on a project basis rather than on an annual fiscal basis; therefore, a comparison of actual to budget for Capital Project Funds would not be meaningful.

CASH MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES The City’s idle funds shall be invested in accordance with the Investment Policy adopted by the Mayor and City Council. Supplemental to these general policies and procedures the City’s Cash Management Officer shall monitor the cash and investment portfolio to maintain adequate collateral of deposits in excess of FDIC insurance. A schedule of collateral shall be maintained and monitored to insure that market values are equal to, or greater than 105% of estimated deposits in the overnight money market account. Weekly cash flow projections should be determined and/or calculated by comparing general ledger cash balances (cash board) with expected receipts or funds needed to cover next two payments cycles, security maturities and payments. If cash on hand is projected to exceed short term needs, then an analysis should be made to invest excess in a fixed maturity security. The new investment maturity should attempt to provide continuous monthly maturities up to a maximum of three years. The interest rate quoted may be tied to another rate to allow for market fluctuations (i.e, the most recent ninety-day (90) treasury bill plus or minus basis points). Any such rate must be subject to independent verification. To accomplish the above listed duties the following activities should be performed on a daily basis:    

Log on to the Bank On-Line Account Inquiry system and print the account balance for that day. Compare the bank balance with the General Ledger Cash Board for reasonableness, i.e. recently issued checks or deposits that may not have cleared. Compare the accounts payable open items list for large payments scheduled for the current and subsequent week to arrive at a cash needs amount. Project any significant cash receipts due that would correspond with outgoing payments, i.e. sales tax normally wired on the tenth of the month, franchise tax receipts and any grant or tax payments. Establish regular vendor payments utilizing ACH process.

47 | P a g e

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

DEBT MANAGEMENT POLICY Debt Types The City of Lee's Summit is authorized to issue General Obligation Bonds, Revenue Bonds, and LeasePurchase Certificates of Participation. In determining the type of bond to issue, the following factors should be considered:       

The direct and indirect beneficiaries of the project. A significantly large proportion of citizens should benefit from projects financed from general obligation bonds. The time pattern of the stream of benefits generated by the project. The revenues that may be raised by alternative types of user charges. The cost-effectiveness of user charges. The effect of the proposed bond issue on the City's ability to finance future projects of equal or high priority. The true interest cost of each type of bond. The impact on the City's financial condition and credit ratings.

General Obligation Bonds The City is authorized to issue General Obligation Bonds payable from ad valorem taxes to finance capital improvements and equipment upon a two-thirds majority vote, and on general election dates a four-sevenths majority vote, of the qualified voters. The Missouri constitution permits the City to incur general obligation indebtedness for City purposes not to exceed 10% of the assessed valuation of taxable tangible property; and to incur general obligation indebtedness not exceeding an additional 10% for acquiring rights of way; constructing and improving streets, sanitary sewers, and storm sewers; and purchasing or constructing waterworks plants. General obligation, property tax-supported bonding should be used to finance only those capital improvements and long term assets, which have been determined to be essential to the maintenance or development of the City. The City should maintain a General Debt and Interest Fund balance which is at least 50% of the average annual debt service. Revenue Bonds The City is also authorized to issue Revenue Bonds to finance capital improvements to its combined water and sewerage system, airport and sanitary landfill facilities. These types of Revenue Bonds require a simple majority vote. Revenue Bonds do not carry the full faith and credit of the City in servicing bond indebtedness, and such bonds are not considered in determining the legal debt margin resulting from the 20% limitation described above. However, if any taxes are pledged or dedicated to the payment of

48 | P a g e


3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

revenue bonds (sales taxes, property taxes etc.) the bonds must be voted as general obligation bonds, the debt limit must be observed, and all bonds must be paid off within 20 years. Revenue supported bonds should be used to limit potential dependence on property taxes for those projects with available revenue sources, whether self-generated or dedicated from other sources. Adequate financial feasibility studies should be performed for each project to provide assurances as to the self-liquidating nature of the project or adequacy of dedicated revenue sources. 63-20 Corporations (Municipal Building Authority) Internal Revenue Service Ruling 63-20 allows the City to create not-for-profit corporations. Through these corporations, the City can issue tax-exempt bonds for the lease purchase of equipment and facilities without the voter approval required for the issuance of general obligation bonds--the City's obligation under a one-year annually renewable lease is not an "indebtedness" according to the Missouri Constitution. The City has financed several projects and equipment purchases through the Lee's Summit Municipal Building Authority. Lease financing is appropriate whenever the introduction of leased equipment and/or a capital improvement results in verifiable operating savings that, properly discounted, outweigh the lease financing costs. Adequate financial feasibility studies should be performed for all innovative financing proposals such as lease and lease-purchase agreements, tax increment financing, pool participation, and special assessment projects. Long term borrowing will be confined to construction of capital improvements and acquisition of capital equipment too large to be financed from current revenues. Proceeds from long-term debt should only be used for construction project costs, acquisition of other fixed assets, bond issue costs, debt service reserve requirements, and refunding of outstanding bond issues and will not be used for current, ongoing operations. Debt will be extinguished within a period not to exceed the expected useful life of the capital project or equipment. The City should actively monitor its investment practices to ensure maximum returns on its invested bond funds while complying with Federal arbitrage guidelines. The Finance Department should continually monitor outstanding debt issues to verify compliance with debt covenants.

49 | P a g e

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

The City's financial management policies should be oriented to maintain a balanced relationship between issuing debt and pay as you go financing. Financial Advisor The City shall retain the services of a Financial Advisor to assist the city in identifying capital financing alternatives and planning its debt program. The financial advisor's role in the debt issuance will vary depending on whether bonds are issued through a competitive or negotiated method of sale. The financial advisor should have no affiliation with the underwriting of a particular issue of the city. The financial advisor and or employees of the financial advisor shall not have made political contributions to any candidate for public office in the city for a period of two years preceding their selection as financial advisor. Method of Bond Sale When appropriate, new debt issues will be offered utilizing the competitive bid process. In a competitive sale, the financial advisor will assist in determining the structure and timing of the issue, prepare bond documents and rating agency presentations and evaluate the best bid and assist in the closing transaction. Refunding of Existing Debt The city will consider undertaking a refunding when one or more of the following three conditions exist: 1. The present value of all refunding costs, (including interest, call premium, bond counsel, financial underwriter spread/discount and other issuance costs) is less than the present value of the current interest. Net present value savings should approximate a minimum of three percent (3%). 2. The city wishes to restructure debt service. 3. The city wishes to eliminate old bond covenants that may have become restrictive. Financial Underwriter The financial underwriter shall determine which bid for the city's bonds is best by reviewing the pricing of comparable issues, talking to potential investors, identifying other similar issues that are likely to be in the market at the same time, and assessing the level of competition among various underwriting firms utilizing the Negotiated Sale process. The financial underwriter and or employees of the financial underwriter shall not have made political contributions to any candidate for public office in the city, for a period of two years preceding their selection as financial underwriter. Federal Arbitrage Compliance Arbitrage is the difference between the yield on an issuer's tax exempt bond and the investment income earned on the proceeds. Arbitrage profits are earned when lower-yielding tax-exempt bond proceeds are invested in higher-yielding taxable securities.

50 | P a g e

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Federal arbitrage restrictions imposed by the federal government prohibit an issuer from retaining arbitrage profits when investing bond proceeds at a yield that exceeds the yield on the bonds. The city will calculate or contract with a reputable firm to calculate, any arbitrage liability, and rebate such, to the U.S. Treasury in accordance with federal guidelines.

Capital Project Financing The City of Lee's Summit is authorized to issue General Obligation Bonds, Revenue Bonds, and Lease-Purchase Certificates of Participation. In determining the type of bond to issue, the following factors should be considered:       

The direct and indirect beneficiaries of the project. A significantly large proportion of citizens should benefit from projects financed from general obligation bonds. The time pattern of the stream of benefits generated by the project. The revenues that may be raised by alternative types of user charges. The cost-effectiveness of user charges. The effect of the proposed bond issue on the City's ability to finance future projects of equal or high priority. The true interest cost of each type of bond.

The City should maintain a General Obligation Debt Service and Interest Fund balance which is at least 50% of the average annual debt service. Revenue Bonds The City is also authorized to issue Revenue Bonds to finance capital improvements to its combined water and sewerage system, airport and sanitary landfill facilities. These types of Revenue Bonds require a simple majority vote. Revenue Bonds do not carry the full faith and credit of the City in servicing bond indebtedness, and such bonds are not considered in determining the legal debt margin resulting from the 20% limitation described above. However, if any taxes are pledged or dedicated to the payment of revenue bonds (sales taxes, property taxes etc.) the bonds must be voted as general obligation bonds, the debt limit must be observed, and all bonds must be paid off within 20 years. Revenue supported bonds should be used to limit potential dependence on property taxes for those projects with available revenue sources, whether self-generated or dedicated from other sources. Adequate financial feasibility studies should be performed for each project to provide assurances as to the self-liquidating nature of the project or adequacy of dedicated revenue sources. 63-20 Corporations (Municipal Building Authority) Internal Revenue Service Ruling 63-20 allows the City to create not-for-profit corporations. Through these corporations, the City can issue tax-exempt bonds for the lease purchase of equipment and facilities without the voter approval required for the issuance of general obligation bonds--the City's obligation under a one-year annually renewable lease is not an "indebtedness" according to the Missouri Constitution. The City has financed several projects and equipment purchases through the Lee's Summit Municipal Building Authority. Lease financing is appropriate whenever the introduction of leased equipment and/or a capital improvement results in verifiable operating savings that, properly discounted, outweigh the lease financing costs.

3: Budget Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Adequate financial feasibility studies should be performed for all innovative financing proposals such as lease and lease-purchase agreements, tax increment financing, pool participation, and special assessment projects. Long term borrowing will be confined to construction of capital improvements and acquisition of capital equipment too large to be financed from current revenues. Proceeds from long-term debt should only be used for design and construction project costs, acquisition of other fixed assets, bond issue costs, debt service reserve requirements, and refunding of outstanding bond issues and will not be used for current, ongoing operations. Debt will be extinguished within a period not to exceed the expected useful life of the capital project or equipment. The City's financial management policies should be oriented to maintain a balanced relationship between issuing debt and pay as you go financing.

Section 4: Revenue Projections


4: Revenue Projections

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

REVENUE PROJECTIONS The primary support for general services comes from diverse revenue sources such as property taxes, sales taxes, and utility franchise taxes. Combined, these major revenue sources comprise approximately 78% of all general fund revenues. The balance of revenues is derived from user charges, fines and forfeitures, investment income, intergovernmental revenues and miscellaneous fees and charges. In previous years, these revenue sources experienced steady growth allowing the City to maintain and in some service areas expand the level of service. Full recovery from the recent economic downturn did not occur in FY12 as property taxes remained stagnant and even experienced slight decline in some areas. Modest growth was experienced in sales taxes revenues but mild weather conditions for much of the year left franchise tax revenues below budget. The following revenue projection pages are prepared for all major revenue sources over $1 million. They are presented in order of highest to lowest total revenue. The starting point for all account revenue projections begins with the new construction building permit activity of the past year. From this, assessed valuations are projected for the property tax accounts. The building permit information also provides an estimation of population growth, which is normally factored into the various accounts such as license, permits and fees. Historical account activity is tracked to also provide trend information to provide a comparative basis for projections. Each revenue page has five sections, which lists the account code, legal authorization, description, basis of revenue projection and the fund collection/distribution. 1. The Account Code section lists the specific line item that the receipt will be posted to in the city's general ledger accounting system. 2. The Legal Authorization section should list either the state statute or city ordinance, which allows the city to levy and receive this source of funds. 3. The Description section provides a brief explanation of the formula (i.e. tax levy times assessed valuation or building permit square footage times rate per foot), or established schedule of fees. 4. The Basis of Revenue Projection section describes the logic and/or assumptions used to arrive at the projected amounts and possibly he history or trend analysis of the particular account. 5. The Fund Collection/Distribution section lists the most recent five years of actual receipt activity in the account, plus a projection for the current fiscal year and the upcoming budget year. In the case where a single revenue account is received in more than one fund, all funds are listed by fund category and then totaled.

Description: The City imposes a total sales tax of 2.25% on all goods and commodities sold within the City limits, and it is broken down i nto four funds as detailed below . Transportation and Park Development local sales taxes are not levied on utilities. The State of Missouri receives the tax from the respective business and distributes the funds monthly to the City. In an April 5, 2005 special election, the City voted to extend the Park Development Fund's local sales tax for a period of ten years beginning April 1, 2008 at a rate of one-quarter of one percent (1/4 of 1%). This rate was a .125% reduction from what was then the current rate.

In an April 3, 2007 special election, the City also voted to extend the Capital Improvements sales tax for streets and relate d projects for a period of ten years from its pending expiration of March 31, 2008 with no rate change. Therefore, beginning April 1, 2008, the City's total sales tax rate was reduced from 2.375% to 2.25% due the reduction of .125% in the Park Development Fund.

Basis of Projection:

Financial Trend $33,000,000

General fund sales tax receipts are projected to end FY12 $245 thousand or 2% above budget. The FY13 budget includes additional revenues from growth at the Summit Fair shopping center and in the Longview area. The FY13 budget also includes new receipts fo to reflect taxes that have been collected and paid to another jurisdiction in error but will now correctly flow to the City.

Account Codes:

State Statute : Section 99.820, 99.845 City Ordinance :

410.001, 411.001 411.101, 411.201

Description: For redevelopment projects approved by ordinance after August 31, 1991, fifty percent of the total additional revenue from taxes, penalties and interest which are imposed by the municipality or other taxing districts, and which are generated by economic activities within the area over a determined base amount, but excluding certain taxes, shall be allocated to, and paid to the municipality, who shall deposit such funds in a separate segregated account within a special allocation fund.

Lee's Summit has seven active TIF redevelopment projects which are/will generate economic activity taxes (EATS): Summit Woods, Chapel Ridge, I-470 Business and Technology, Longview, Hartley Block, Todd George and 50 Highway and Summit Fair. In an April 5, 2005 special election, the City voted to extend the Park Development Fund's local sales tax for a period of ten years beginning April 1, 2008 at a rate of one-quarter of one percent (1/4 of 1%). This rate was a .125% reduction from what was then the current rate. In an April 3, 2007 special election, the City also voted to extend the Capital Improvements sales tax for streets and relate d projects for a period of ten years from its pending expiration of March 31, 2008 with no rate change. Therefore, beginning April 1, 2008, the City's total sales tax rate was reduced from 2.375% to 2.25% due the reduction of .125% in the Park Development Fund.

Basis of Projection & Analysis:

Financial Trend $4,000,000

The FY12 budget includes revenues from all seven active TIF redevelopment projects which generate EATS. The FY12 projection anticipates 10 months of EATS collections in the Summit Woods shopping district. The remaining 2 months of collections will be held in a surplus account which will be accessible when the Summit Woods shopping district financing ends.

$3,500,000 $3,000,000 $2,500,000

$2,000,000 $1,500,000

For FY13, moderate growth of 2.5% is expected in the TIF redevelopment projects. The large decrease from FY12 to FY13 factors the end of the Summit Woods TIF district.

Section 5: General Fund Overview


5: General Fund Overview

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

GENERAL FUND The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. Expenditures from this fund provide the basic city services, such as police and fire protection. It also funds the following departments and the services they provide: Administration, Codes Administration, Finance, Law, Municipal Court, Planning & Development, and Public Works. The major revenue sources of this fund are property taxes, retail sales taxes, and utility franchise taxes. The remaining revenues are derived from the various user fees and other sources. A key element of the budget process is projecting the fund’s ending reserve balance. Total expenditures for the upcoming fiscal year are set based on projected revenues for the coming year and to ensure fund reserves will remain at the level set by policy. Fund balance reserves represent the unappropriated accumulation of the difference between actual revenues and expenditures. The source and timing of revenues dictates the level of fund balance necessary to avoid cash shortages in normal day to day operations. The City recognizes the need to establish and maintain adequate reserves to avoid any disruption in service level caused by either a downturn in a significant revenue item or one that is only received at a particular time such as property taxes in December. Accordingly, the City Council adopted a resolution that requires a minimum fund balance of 20% of operating fund expenditures, plus an additional 5% reserve for economic development opportunities. The City utilizes Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) based budgeting for the General Fund. This requires that the modified accrual method of accounting is used to record revenues and expenditures. Revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e. when they become measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined, and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of current period. Revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, franchise taxes and interest revenue. Sales taxes collected and held by the state at year-end on behalf of the City also are recognized as revenue. User charges, fines, licenses, permits and miscellaneous revenues are not susceptible to accrual because generally they are not measurable until received in cash.

Until recently, General Fund revenues exceeded expenditures, as depicted in the following graph. In FY11, a $15.5 million court settlement created a large peak in expenditures. In addition, due to the ongoing economic downturn, general expenditures are projected to roughtly equal total operating revenues in the coming fiscal years. The Summit Woods Tax Increment Financing (TIF) agreement will mature in 2013, and 100% of the Economic Activity Taxes (EATS) and Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILOTS) from that project will flow to the General Fund helping to increase revenues and restore the City’s fund reserves. For FY13, total revenues (including one-time payments) are expected to be above expenditures by 1%.

Projected

In 2004, the City passed a General Fund policy that sets the City minimum general fund balance for the fiscal year at 20% of projected annual operating expenditures, plus an additional 5% is to be reserved or designated for economic opportunity funding. The chart below shows that the one-time expense in FY11 brings the General Fund balance to below the 20% level. Anticipated transfers into the General Fund as well retirement of the TIF as stated earlier will help bring the fund balance back within the targeted level for FY13 through FY17. Careful planning and budgeting will be required to ensure the balance remains within the stated policy in out years.

ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT The Administration Department (Administration) provides general supervision and support for most departments within the City and also serves as the link between the elected governing body and the staff of the City’s departments. It houses the City Manager’s Office and oversees Human Resources, the City Clerk’s Office, and several organization-wide functions such as communications, economic development, and budget preparation and administration. The budget function was just recently transitioned from the Finance Department to Administration at the beginning of the fiscal year 2013 process.

Lastly, Administration provides primary support to the Mayor, City Council, the Lee’s Summit 360 Strategic Plan implementation process, and various City boards, commissions and committees. Many of the committees are comprised of volunteer citizens and community stakeholders who devote their time for the betterment of Lee’s Summit. Among other support activities, Administration provides research, analysis, and recommendations on policy and service matters for the elected officials and the City committees. Human Resources The Human Resources Division reports to the Deputy City Manager, and it operates as a partial internal service agent for all City departments and employees. Its primary function is to administer and oversee all personnel and employee service programs including recruitment and hiring, performance management, labor relations, employee benefit programs, payroll, training and development, safety, workers compensation, and some risk management efforts. City Clerk’s Office The City Clerk’s Office is the custodian of records. It is responsible for maintaining the City’s Code of Ordinances, posting notices for public meetings, preparing City Council meeting agendas and packets, and responding to requests for information pursuant to requirements of the Missouri Sunshine Law. It also serves as the election authority for the City and coordinator of elections, among other duties.

CODES ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT The Codes Administration Department is staffed with 17 full time employees and consists of four closely related divisions (Administration, Permit and Plan Review, Building Inspections, and Neighborhood Services). Each division has a distinct yet vital part of code enforcement within the community. Through the Neighborhood Services Division, the department also facilitates the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funded Minor Home Repair Program. The focus of the Codes Administration Department is to ensure buildings and structures are constructed, utilized, and maintained in a manner that reduces the risk to public health, safety and welfare. The Administration Division provides administrative functions for the department and also provides staff support to the Board of Appeals. During the concept stage of a project the Permit and Plan Review Division reviews all construction documents to ensure code compliance prior to permit approval and issuance of building permits. Once the building permit has been issued, the Building Inspections Division ensures the actual construction of the project complies with adopted building codes and approved construction documents through the performance of required inspections during various stages of the project. Finally, after project completion and occupancy, the Neighborhood Services Division assures the structures and property is used and maintained in a safe code complaint manner. In addition, Neighborhood Services is also responsible for zoning enforcement to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The Minor Home Repair Program facilitated by the department provides a source for lowmoderate income families to make improvements to owner occupied single-family residences through CDBG grants obtained by the City. This program is often used to abate property maintenance concerns being pursued by the Neighborhood Services Division.

FINANCE DEPARTMENT The Finance Department is responsible for all cash receipts and disbursements and maintenance of an internal control structure that adequately safeguards the assets of the City. Finance also oversees the auditing, procurement, and reporting functions of the City. The department’s expenditures are allocated between five programs. Those programs are Departmental Administration, Budget and Accounting Services, Debt and Cash Management, Procurement, and Support to Development. All Finance department programs are classified in and charged directly to the General Fund.

The Departmental Administration program’s primary function is to account for general and administrative expenditures necessary to operate the department. These charges are common to all divisions and not directly associated with any particular one, i.e. Information Technology Systems and Central Building Services overhead and replacement allocations.

The Budget and Accounting Services program involves the traditional processing of all of the City's invoices for goods and services and recording all related general ledger transactions in order to prepare financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This program is also responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure and procuring the independent financial audit each fiscal year. The objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition.

The Debt and Cash Management Program is responsible for establishing proper internal controls for the collection and distribution of revenue for the 70 active funds. In addition, this program oversees the City's outstanding and active debt issues approximating $74.3 million and maintains the City’s investment portfolio averaging $100 million according to the City investment policy and cash management procedures.

Procurement provides centralized procurement of goods and services. The division is responsible for obtaining commodities and services at the most economical prices while ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and policies. It also directs the procurement of all major construction projects, professional services, heavy equipment, vehicles and other goods and services. Lastly, the division establishes contracts to provide an immediate and uninterrupted source of supplies for frequently used items and is responsible for the disposal of surplus property.

The Support to Development program accounts for finance related expenditures attributed to economic development and any associated tax incentive programs.

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS DIVISION The Public Works Operations Division maintains public infrastructure—the transportation network including City owned traffic signals, school flashers, street lights and the storm water collection system. During the winter months snow removal becomes the top priority. This division (with the Airport Division and Solid Waste Division) is under the supervision of the Deputy Director of Public Works. The Operations Division is divided into six main groups which include Administration, Stormwater, Bridge and Right-of-Way, Traffic, Street Maintenance, and Capital Pavement Management. The Administration Group coordinates the budget and tracking of information and costs within the division. An infrastructure management software program called Cityworks is utilized to track costs, evaluate efficiency, and manage performance. This group also administers the Adopt a Street program; all locations adopted are either a half mile or one mile in length. The Street Maintenance Group performs pothole patching, pavement inspection (for the Overlay, Slurry seal and Crack seal programs) and maintenance on streets, alleys and City owned parking lots. The City currently has 1,029 lane miles of City owned pavement. The Storm Water Group inspects, maintains, and repairs the 1,313,720 lineal feet of storm pipe as well as the 14,336 storm water structures currently in the system. Street sweeping is also part of this group. The Bridge and Right-of-Way Group performs maintenance and repair on the 52 City maintained bridges as well as sidewalk maintenance, tree trimming, right-of-way mowing, weed spraying and litter pickup. The Traffic Group fabricates and installs street name signs, regulatory signs and warning signs throughout the City. They also perform paint striping on City owned parking lots and cross-walks. This group also performs maintenance and repair on 54 signaled intersections and 1500 City owned street lights, including 133 downtown street lights. This group also performs locates for any excavations in the vicinity of City owned signals and street lights. Capital Pavement Management is also administrated out of this division. Pavement management includes crack seal, micro surface, ultra thin bonded wearing surface, overlay and curb replacement for 1,029 lane miles of City maintained roadway. MicroPaver software is currently being implemented to evaluate the roadway infrastructure based on current pavement inspections. MicroPaver once fully functional will identify priorities and trends in capital pavement management. This group also oversees the sidewalk gap and repair bond program. The City is responsible for over 350 miles of sidewalk.

Within these programs, the department administers eight funds: five Special Revenue Funds, two Capital Project Funds (greenway and Neighborhood Development), and one Enterprise Fund (Harris Park Community Center). Descriptions and budgets for the Capital Projects and Enterprise Funds may be found in their respective sections of this document. The special revenue funds of the Parks and Recreation Department include: Parks & Recreation, Gamber Center, Swimming Pool, Community Center, and Cemetery Trust Funds. They are accounted for as special revenue funds and utilize Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) based budgeting. This requires that the modified accrual method is used to record revenues and expenditures. Revenues are recognized when susceptible (i.e. when they become measurable and available). Measurable means the amount of the transaction can be determined and available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities when due. Revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes and interest revenue. Admission fees, user charges, concession sales and miscellaneous revenue are not susceptible to accrual.

Significant Changes/Initiatives: 

Revenue-Gate Receipts - The Gate Receipts for FY13 are anticipated to be higher from additional special events (Teen Night and Family Night) and the discontinuation of the "Beat the Heat" discount.

Revenue-Concessions - Beginning with the summer 2012 season, a new coupon program will be offered to both single visit patrons and season pass holders. The single visit patrons will receive a $1.00 off coupon and each season pass holder will receive a $5.00 off coupon book. The coupons can be redeemed in the concession area for certain products. The program anticipates additional net revenue of approximately $4,000.

The Business and Industry Tax fund was created to account for the license tax on certain gross receipts of hotels, motels and similar places of business, in an amount equal to 5% of gross daily rental receipts derived from transient guests for sleeping accommodations. The proceeds are used to promote the general economic welfare of the City including attraction and retention of business and industry to the community and the promotion and provision of facilities for tourism, conventions, and visitors. Businesses are allowed to deduct 2% processing fee if their tax is remitted before the 20th of the month. The 7 hotel/motels in the City have a total of 493 rooms with an average occupancy rate of 56% for fiscal years 2006, 2007, and 2008.

In FY 2005-06, $525,000 was transferred from the General Fund to the Business and Industry Fund for the Downtown Masterplan Improvements five-year implementation plan. FY 2009-10 reflects the last year of payment toward the Downtown Masterplan. This is shown under contributions in the amount of $102,000. A 4-Year Plan was adopted during the Fiscal Year 2009-2010 budget process, addressing the diminishing fund balance. This 4-Year Plan reduces contributions through fiscal year 2012-13. In February of 2010, the Business & Industry Tax revenue was reduced due to higher vacancy rates than projected in the first & second quarters of Fiscal Year 2009-2010. This change caused the fund balance to go negative at year-end, and reductions in contributions would change to a 5-Year Plan beginning Fiscal Year 2009-2010 instead of 2010-2011. Downtown Main Street and the Economic Developement Council's Public Service Agreements were amended in Fiscal Year 2010-2011, and funding for this amendment came from a transfer-in from the City's General Fund in the amount of $62,220. The Fiscal Year 2011-2012 budget included a transfer from the General Fund in the amount of $62,220. Downtown Mainstreet's funding was increased from $24,130 to $60,000 and the Economic Development Council's funding was increased from $224,569 to $250,915 for Fiscal Year 2010-11.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS OVERVIEW

A Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a major public infrastructure planning tool for many local governments. The CIP reflects the community’s assets, needs and goals, and is a statement of the City’s policies and projected financial ability to manage the physical development of the community. The development of a CIP matches information regarding planned public improvements with anticipated funding, and thus presents a systematic plan for providing the needed improvements within a prioritized framework.

The City’s Charter mandates the development and annual review of a capital improvements plan and estimated operating and maintenance costs of the proposed improvements. The plan is formally adopted each year by the Planning Commission as part of the Comprehensive Plan. This approach addresses legal requirements for public hearings on the location, nature and extent of all projects. All costs identified for the first year of the plan are included in the City’s Operating Budget, which is adopted by the Mayor and City Council, for the upcoming fiscal year.

The proposed five (5) year CIP for the City of Lee’s Summit sets the general schedule for which public improvements are proposed to be undertaken in that time frame. The CIP includes projects over $50,000 in total cost that are anticipated to be funded during the five-year period. Operating and maintenance expense information is provided for the first year of the plan when applicable. Annual maintenance programs, small projects and small planning studies, such as the street overlay program or system master plans, are typically included in the CIP as programs.

A CIP is not a static document, but rather a fluid document that can be changed as the infrastructure requirements change, development occurs, and funding opportunities become available. The remaining four (4) years of the five-year plan represent all projects that are currently proposed for future funding based on the revenue projections. As priorities, needs and revenues change, projects may be added to or removed from the CIP. Estimated expenses and revenue projections are reviewed annually and adjusted if necessary to account for growth, inflation and other economic conditions.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROCESS

DEFINITION A capital improvement is a necessary or desirable project that extends or improves infrastructure and enhances the City’s ability to provide safe and desirable services for the benefit of the community and the quality of life in Lee’s Summit. These projects directly affect the way citizens live, travel and conduct business within the community.

IDENTIFICATION The need for capital improvements may be identified by an adopted infrastructure master plan, the desire to maintain certain levels and types of service provided in the community, by community groups, or by regulatory legislation. Projects are prioritized based on many factors including their impact on providing better city services, accommodating city growth, effect on maintenance and operation expenditures, and the overall health, safety and welfare of the citizens.

CREATION The scope of a proposed project is often determined based on a preliminary study or recommendations from other city master plans. Once the project is identified a preliminary cost estimate and schedule for the design, right of way and easement acquisition, and construction of the project is prepared. These initial cost estimates are typically general in nature with considerable contingencies included. If the project is selected for inclusion in the CIP, the estimates and schedule are the basis of the initial project information.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN IMPLEMENTATION

When a project on the CIP schedule is funded, it is assigned to a project manager who will assume oversight responsibilities. A number of steps are required before a project is complete.

DESIGN The project manager will coordinate and participate in the selection process for an engineering or architectural design firm, as appropriate. Architectural and engineering services contracts, unlike commodities contracts, are awarded to firms strictly on the qualifications and expertise of the firm in the particular type of project. The project manager is responsible for negotiating a detailed scope and fee for the design services with the selected consultant. Design for some projects may be completed by City staff or awarded to consultants through annual on-call contracts. 173 | P a g e


8: Capital Project Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

The design process is typically divided into several phases: concept and/or preliminary design, right-of-way plans, right-of-way appraisal and acquisition, and final design. Plans and cost estimates are prepared, either by the consultant or City staff, for review at least at these project milestones. If state or federal funding is involved, plans and estimates are also provided to the appropriate agency for review. As more refined information on project scope and cost is developed, the CIP document is revised accordingly during the next annual update. Occasionally, projects may be deferred or deleted from the plan based on information gathered during the design process that indicates significant problems with pursuing the project.

Typically, one or more public meetings are held for major projects that have significant impacts on property owners and the public to obtain feedback and comments from the community. A meeting is often held at the completion of preliminary plans in order to let residents abutting the project know how the design will affect their properties. Comments made at the meetings are considered by City staff and the design firm for inclusion in revised plans, if appropriate, prior to appraisals and property acquisition. Other meetings may be held before any design is started and just before construction begins.

Right-of-way plans define the nature and extent of property required to complete a project. Property acquisition may be in the form of right-of-way, permanent easements or temporary construction easements. The City hires professional appraisers to determine fair market value of the acquisitions, which is the basis for initial offers to property owners. The City’s right-of-way agent and/or contract agents complete the negotiation and acquisition process for the projects.

Once all property is acquired, final plans and specifications can be completed. During this time, any necessary relocation of private utilities (gas, phone, power) is also accomplished. Typically, all relocations are complete prior to bidding a capital project.

ADVERTISEMENT, BID AND AWARD Capital projects are publicly advertised through the City’s Purchasing Division. City and consultant staff members evaluate all bids for completeness and correctness, and references for the low bidder are checked. Based on the review and references, the consultant or the City’s project manager makes a recommendation for award to the lowest and best bidder. The award of the construction contract is made by City Council.

SCHEDULE The construction contract sets forth the required completion time for the project. Time is counted from the date of the “Notice to Proceed” to the point of substantial completion and final completion. The duration is determined by the design consultant and/or City staff based on the scope of work, 174 | P a g e


8: Capital Project Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

seasonal constraints, coordination with property owners, and impacts on the traveling public. The order and duration of specific tasks within the allotted contract time is typically determined by the contractor. The assessment of liquidated damages is included in construction contracts for failure to meet required completion dates.

CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION The City’s project manager for the design processor or a project manager from the construction management group is typically responsible for performing or coordinating project administration during construction. Such tasks generally include monitoring project progress, schedule and costs; coordinating and facilitating communications between the design consultant, inspections staff, contractor and City staff; negotiating and coordinating approval of changes in the project scope or cost; reviewing and approving regular progress payments; and reporting on the construction progress to City Council and the public through the City’s publications and website. Changes to the contract totaling up to five percent of the original bid price may be approved administratively by the appropriate Department Director. Changes that increase the cost in excess of that amount must be approved by the City Council.

SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

Substantial completion is defined as the time at which the project has progressed to the point where it is sufficiently complete that it can be utilized for the intended purpose. At this time, a comprehensive inspection is performed by City staff and the design consultant to create a list of all incorrect or outstanding items (a “punch list”) remaining to be completed or corrected. The punch list items and all other deficiencies must be completed before final acceptance of the project by the City, and final payment to the contractor. FINAL ACCEPTANCE Final acceptance is realized when the contractor has completed all work on the project, including punch list items, has provided the City with a maintenance bond, and has submitted all other close-out documents in accordance with the construction contract. The project manager is responsible for preparing a final project report and submitting it to city and department management staff as well as to City Council. Any unspent funds authorized for a project will be returned to the appropriate funding source for reallocation to future projects.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN FUNDING Revenue Sources 175 | P a g e


8: Capital Project Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

All funding sources that may be used for various capital improvements are reviewed each year. Much of the work to develop the CIP focuses on the balancing of available resources with the identified capital needs. Consideration must be given to factors such as annual revenue projections from various sources, restrictions on the uses of certain funds, legal limitations on debt capacity, and City policies relative to project funding. The following is a list of existing funding sources and definitions for each: TAXES

Property Tax- Revenue from the ad valorem tax levied on all real and personal property, based upon the assessed valuation established by the County Assessor on January 1st of each year. Real property assessed valuation is determined by applying the “market value” times the appropriate assessment ratios. As follows:

   

Commercial/Industrial: Residential: Agricultural: Personal Property assessed the State Tax Commission.

32% 19% 12% valuation is set at 33% of market value and is determined by

Sales Tax- The City imposes a total sales tax of 2.25% (Capital Improvement: 0.50%, General fund: 1.0%, Parks and Recreation: 0.25%, Transportation: 0.50%) on all goods and commodities sold within the City limits with the exception of drugs and farm machinery. The tax is also levied on all vehicles registered by residents of the City, regardless of where those vehicles were purchased. Transportation tax is not levied on utilities and is earmarked specifically for use in funding transportation projects only. The State of Missouri receives the tax from the respective business and distributes the funds monthly to the City.

Parks & Recreation 1/4-Cent Sales Tax- Initially approved in November 1997 for 3/8-cent and renewed in February 2006 for ¼-cent, this revenue source is dedicated to Parks and Recreation improvements including completion of Legacy Park facilities, new park development, the Senior Center, and greenway development.

Transportation ½-Cent Sales Tax- Approved initially in the 1980s, this tax is available to pay for transportation and traffic infrastructure improvements and major maintenance, such as overlay and slurry seal, curb and gutter replacement, crack sealing and pavement marking. This sales tax also provides funding for several other Public Works Programs including bridge rehabilitation, thoroughfare and traffic master plan studies, community bus services and the Neighborhood Traffic Safety Program.

176 | P a g e


8: Capital Project Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

Capital Improvement ½-Cent Sales Tax- Originally approved in November 1997, this tax has been used in conjunction with the Road Excise tax to fund road improvements related to the “10year road plan” adopted in 1997. The sales tax was renewed in April 2007 with collection beginning in 2008 and ending in 2018. This renewal of the sales tax will fund a second “10-year road plan” comprising 6 major projects.

Road Excise Tax- Excise Tax is paid for development that generates new traffic in the City in the form of a license tax on building contractors. This revenue source is available for road improvements throughout the City that are required due to growth to at least some degree. The excise tax will continue to be used for the remaining projects from the first 10-year plan until it is complete.

Transportation Development Districts A geographic area may be designated to levy an additional sales or property tax assessment to pay for transportation related infrastructure improvements.

Tax Increment Financing Provides for the capture of 50% of the Economic Activity Taxes (Sales and Franchise) generated within the boundaries of a designated area to be used to finance infrastructure improvements. All of the incremental increases in real estate taxes are also captured from all taxing jurisdictions until the infrastructure is paid off.

BOND PROCEEDS

General Obligation (G.O.) Bonds- Bonds which are backed by the full faith and credit of the City and require either a 2/3rds or 4/7ths voter approval. Limitations for bonding capacity are set by state statute.

Revenue Bonds- Bonds which are backed by the fees and charges of a business-like government function, payable only from a specific source of revenue. Simple majority voter approval required. Limitations for bonding capacity are not set by state statute but rather the entity’s ability to repay the debt.

Certificates of Participation- Bonds which are backed by general revenues or fees and charges of a government. No voter approval is required. Limitations for bonding capacity are determined by the market and the entity’s ability to repay the debt.

Special Obligation Bonds- Bonds which are backed by general revenues or fees and charges of 177 | P a g e


8: Capital Project Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

a government. No voter approval is required. Limitations for bonding capacity are determined by the market and the entity’s ability to repay.

GRANT FUNDING Grants may be received from federal, state or county governments. Grants are typically available for transportation, airport improvements, parks, and public safety equipment. The City also receives community development block grants (CDBG) for use in low-to-moderate income areas within the community. Equipment purchases and CDBG projects are not included in the CIP.

FEES AND CHARGES Fees for direct receipt of public service by the parties who benefit from the service

Landfill Tipping and Yard Waste Disposal Fees- Collected by Public Works Solid Waste Division for disposal of refuse or yard waste at the Resource Recovery Park.

Parks and Recreation Activity Fees- Collected by Parks & Recreation Department for participation in various sports and recreation programs, aquatic instruction, and the Camp Summit and Club Summit daycare programs at the Recreation Center.

Recreation Memberships- Membership fees collected for the Lee’s Summit Pool and the Legacy Park Community Center.

Water Sales- Charges for supplying water to residential, commercial, industrial and wholesale customers.

Sewer Charges- Charges for providing wastewater collection and disposal services to residential, commercial and industrial customers.

Sewer Tap- The charge for a new sanitary sewer connection based on the number of drains in a structure and assessed at the time of building permit issuance.

Water Taps- The charge for a new water service connection based on the size of water meter required. Also included in the water tap fee is an amount which is intended to provide capital for the development of the City’s water transmission capacity. 178 | P a g e

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

CIP IMPACT ON OPERATING BUDGET As part of the Capital Improvement Plan, the impact of each project on the City’s operating budget is identified. As capital improvement projects are completed, operation and maintenance of these facilities must be absorbed into the appropriate department operating budget, which provides ongoing services to citizens. These operating costs, which may include salaries, equipment, regular maintenance, and repairs, are adjusted annually to accommodate growth and inflation in maintaining or improving service levels. In some cases, elimination of high-maintenance facilities may also reduce these operating costs. It is the City of Lee’s Summit’s philosophy that new projects should not be constructed if operating revenues are unavailable to cover the operating costs. These must be funded with recurring (ongoing) revenues. As a result, the availability of recurring revenues must be considered in the decision to include projects in the plan. The 2013-2017 CIP totals $256,367,000 (including funding from prior years), down from $283,827,000 in the 2012-2016 plan. The decrease in the total is due to a combination of the completion of several large projects previously included and fewer projects as a result of projected reductions in revenues in several areas due to current economic conditions. Significant changes include: Completed Projects • Colbern & Campbell Middle School Traffic Signal • Douglas Street Improvements • Strother Interchange/ Todd George Parkway • Park Development West Land Acquisition • Prairie Lee Lake Sewer System - north and south • Sanitary Sewer Rehab FY11 Reprioritized Projects • Ward & Persels Traffic Signal • Legacy Park Amphitheater Other Significant Revisions • Velie Trail Connector - this project w a s eliminated d u e to a project in the area by another jurisdiction that will serve the same purpose

The following pages display a few detailed examples of the CIP’s impact on the operating budget.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13 PROPRIETARY FUNDS

Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations that provide a service to the general public and are financed primarily by a user charge for the provision of such service. The city operates four enterprises: the Water/Sewer Utility, the Municipal Airport, the Sanitary Landfill, and the Recreation Center. Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department to other departments of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis. The City has seven Internal Service Funds. The Central Vehicle Maintenance Fund and Management Information Systems Funds were established to provide replacement vehicles and data processing equipment and the related maintenance services to the various City departments. Unemployment Insurance Fund, Insurance Reserve Trust Fund, Short Term Disability, and Worker’s Compensation Self Insurance Fund were established to account for the City provided employee benefits. New in Fiscal Year 2007-2008 is the Central Building Services Fund. This fund will provide funding for capital maintenance projects. The City utilizes Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) based budgeting for these funds. This requires that the full accrual method be used to record revenues and expenditures. This presentation records long-term assets and liabilities, and recognizes revenues and expenses when transactions occur.

WATER UTILITIES The Water Utilities Department serves approximately 34,000 customers. The total water supply of 21.5 million gallons per day (MGD) includes 14 MGD from the city Kansas City, Missouri and 7.5 MGD from the city of Independence, Missouri. Water demands reached a historical max day high in 2003 of 25.5 MGD. In 2008, max day demand was 15.5 MGD as summer demands were considerably less due to moderate weather conditions. Lee's Summit has entered into a cooperative agreement with Kansas City for Phase III of the Jackson - Cass Transmission line. The project, when completed, will increase the total water supply from Kansas City by an additional 6 MGD.

The City of Lee’s Summit and Little Blue Valley Sewer District have developed a contractual agreement for ongoing treatment and pumping within the Little Blue Valley drainage basin to accommodate existing and future customers within Lee's Summit. In order to maximize capacity of the sanitary sewer system, Water Utilities continues to focus on Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) reduction programs. As a part of the FY 2006-07 budget, the Operations Division developed schedules for life-cycle replacement of key equipment. This program ensures that funds are annually accumulated for the replacement of critical pumping equipment and power generators for both the water and wastewater functions similar to the VERP, MERP and BERP. The program also includes tank re-coating to extend the useful life of water storage facilities.

Water Utilities has initiated a strategic planning process that will involve an assessment of the Utility with respect to the Effective Utility Management framework developed by US EPA in cooperation with 6 public works and utility organizations. The process will obtain input from stakeholder’s to align the rates with the level of service provided. This project is expected to be completed over a 10-month schedule beginning in May 2010.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT FUND The Solid Waste Management Fund accounts for all revenues and expenses related to the City's Resource Recovery Park. The Resource Recovery Park, which operates on a six-day per week schedule, encompasses an area of approximately 275 acres including a 80 acre sanitary landfill, a four acre yard waste composting facility, a one acre drop-off recycling center, and a Household Hazardous Waste disposal area. An additional 40 acres of the site is set aside as a soil borrow area while the remainder of the property serves as a buffer from the abutting property owners. A Solid Waste Superintendent, Site Supervisor, ten full time employees, and two part-time employees staff the Solid Waste Division of the Public Works Department. Staff is responsible for day to day operations for municipal solid waste disposal, composting, brush collection and drop-off recycling. Household hazardous waste facilities and compost-loading facilities also enhance customer service. Staff must continue regular operations during all weather conditions; all possible efforts are expended to ease access to the different facilities. Customer service receives high priority in the Solid Waste Division. Customer awareness is provided through the distribution of recycling information and instructions for safe alternatives for disposal of hazardous household waste, recycling, solid waste and yard waste. Tipping fees for municipal solid waste, yard waste, and the sale of compost and mulch, generates fund revenue. Governed by state law, as well as City ordinance, yard waste cannot be placed in the sanitary landfill. Although no fees are charged for dropping off recyclables at the recycling center, the fund does generate limited revenue from the sale of specific recyclable items. This facility is subsidized from the Solid Waste Fund. A general and administrative fee is paid to the City's General Fund to recover indirect expenses incurred by General Fund staff, including the Public Works Engineering, Finance, Human Resources and Law Departments. The fee is calculated based upon General Fund Department usage.

In accordance with GAAP based budgeting, the Solid Waste Management Fund is reported as an enterprise fund. The non-cash expense of depreciation/depletion is recorded to show how much of the facility has been consumed. Although capital outlay and bond principal redemption is a reallocation of current assets, amounts for these appear in this budget for informational and cash flow purposes only. The plan approved by the voters and City Council in 1994 provided for a 20-year life expectancy at 350 tons per day while maintaining suitable revenues sufficient to offset expenses. The sanitary landfill complies with applicable Federal Environmental Protection Agency and Missouri Department of Natural Resources regulations relating to closure/post closure.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

AIRPORT FUND The Airport Operating Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for all revenues and expenses related to the municipally owned airport. The Lee's Summit Municipal Airport is designated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a reliever airport for the Kansas City metropolitan area and as such is designed to reduce congestion at larger air carrier airports by providing general aviation pilots with alternate landing facilities. It is further classified as a general aviation utility airport serving planes with gross weights of less than 30,000 lbs. and landing speeds less than 121 knots. The airport is equipped with two runways: a 4,016 ft North/South (1836), and a 3,800 ft Crosswind (11-29). Following recommendation in the 2010 adopted Airport Business Plan the City has initiated an engineering contract for services to provide the design work for the first phase of development involving the grading for a 1,285-foot extension to the south. This work is being performed with the assistance of federal and state aviation grants. In conjunction with the completed Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) for the eastside terminal area city staff has continued to work with several parties interested in developing facilities in this area. Airport Fund revenues are generated through the sale of aviation fuel, navigational charts and pilot supplies, the leasing of 75 tie-down spaces, 40 open T-hangar spaces and 113 enclosed hangar spaces and six ground leases for privately owned hangars. Outstanding debt consists of Certificates of Participation (COP’s) and an inter-fund loan from the General Fund. The COP’s were issued in March 2001 in the amount of $955,000 for construction of four new hangar buildings and related site improvements. The inter-fund loan was used to refund a prior debt issue that was at significantly higher interest rates. This inter-fund loan is being repaid on a monthly basis over the next 20 years at the rate that the city would earn on its other investments. The Airport Fund is accounted for as enterprise fund and utilizes Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) based budgeting. This requires that the accrual basis of accounting method is used to record revenues and expenditures. Although capital outlay and bond principal redemption is a reallocation of current assets, amounts for these transactions appear in this budget for informational and cash flow purposes only.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

HARRIS PARK COMMUNITY CENTER FUND The Harris Park Community Center, with renovated additions, is now approximately 30,000 square foot. The recreation facility provides indoor recreational opportunities for all ages through a day camp for school age children held in the summer, holiday breaks from school and scheduled school days off, recreational athletic leagues, programs, instructional classes, special events, and rentals. The summer recreational day camp is for ages 5-11 and provides a wide variety of activities such as skating, bowling, field trips, guest speakers, swimming, etc. The Athletics program provides opportunities for youth such as volleyball, basketball and soccer leagues. Adults, male, female and coed, are served as well at the HPCC for basketball, volleyball, dodge ball or at the newly renovated Hartman Park softball field complex. Instructional classes provide a wide variety of educational and recreational opportunities for pre-school through adults that focus on basic instruction for the individual or family participation. The Special Events group increases cultural awareness by hosting a summer concert series to the community of Lee’s Summit free of charge. Staff from the Parks Department also serves as a liaison to the Arts Council working with a citizen group to research and provide cultural arts activities for the City. The fund is a special revenue fund and utilizes Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) based budgeting. This requires that the modified accrual method is used to record revenues and expenditures. Revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e. when they become measurable and available). Measurable means the amount of the transaction can be determined and available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities when due.

Prepare the City’s employees and technical environment for the changes necessary to ensure the successful implementation of the new products and to ensure successful delivery of new services and features being made available through the Evolution project.

Significant Changes/Initiatives: 

A re-organization was done in FY12 which consolidated the organizational structure of ITS from three teams down to two. The GIS and Operations teams were combined under a single manager; eliminating the Operations Manager position. Supervisors of the Help Desk and Network Services workgroups are being implemented to oversee the daily activities of these key operational functions; under the direction of the Manager of Enterprise Technology Services.

Five key operational duties have been historically performed by temporary professional staff working a 40 hour per week schedule. Retaining qualified personnel in these roles is critical for ongoing IT operations. The budget includes a reallocation of temporary professional salaries for three of these positions to create full time positions for the current Application Analyst, Web Administrator and Audio/Visual Specialist. The Desktop Support and Help Desk Support temporary professional positions should be considered for conversion to full time positions in the future.

Windows 7 has become the standard operating system provided on new desktop computers by all manufactures starting in 2012. ITS has proceeded with a pending project to migrate all desktop computers to the updated operating system. Not all of the current 130+ city applications are able to operate under Windows 7. A proposed project would fund the mitigation tasks needed to address the required software upgrades or replacements necessary to ensure the required transition to Windows 7 can be completed for all City computers within a reasonable timeframe.

The Evolution ERP project continues to be the primary focus for the majority of ITS resources. Additional existing personnel have been reassigned to the project to ensure the successful completion. When the initial project has concluded, an assessment of resource needs and allocation will be conducted to address the pending project requests and additional enhancements identified during the Evolution implementation.

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

FLEET OPERATIONS FUND The Fleet Operations Fund is an internal service fund. Internal service funds are used to account for the financing on cost-reimbursement basis of goods or services provided by one department to other departments within the same governmental organization. The Fleet Operations Fund is comprised of two parts, first the Vehicle Replacement Program (VERP) which provides motor vehicle fleet replacement services to the various City departments. All City motor vehicles are now owned by this fund. The departments then leases or rent their vehicles at a rate that will provide funds for the replacement of that particular piece of equipment at a scheduled future date. By charging a yearly rate with a technology multiplier, over the life of the equipment, this system enables the City to replace vehicles within efficient lifecycle time frame and not just when funds are available. This will provide all departments with safe and efficient vehicles throughout the fiscal year while maintaining a steady yearly payment at much lower rates than direct replacement cost. The fund also allows for the ability to capture new technology allowing for lower fuel cost and reduced emissions output. The second part of the Fleet Operations Fund is the overhead component. This fund account for the cost of the daily operation which provides twenty four hour service to all using departments, Fleet Operations provides all maintenance and repairs to over four hundred pieces of equipment, and our mission is to provide the best service and staff by partnering with departments and vendors to effectively monitor and ensure the most cost effective repair and replacement of vehicles and equipment. With effectively monitoring repairs and maintenance schedules the Fleet Division is committed to providing the most cost effective service while recognizing the value of the ever changing field and capitalizing on changing technology. Overhead is charged to the departments on a weighted percentage of operational overhead costs based on a three year average of the work order hours generated by the using department. The established maintenance program has also yielded longer useful life and higher resale values.

This fund was established to provide compensation to full-time City employees who are incapacitated and who have exhausted all paid time, but are not yet eligible for long-term disability benefits. Beginning July 1, 2009 the short-term disability policy was updated stating all earned time, including vacation and personal, must be exhausted before Short-term disability is available. The 2009-10 Actual claims of $19,882 represents the transition year, and it is anticipated claims will spike as paid time off is exhausted. The Fiscal Year 2012-13 contribution rate of $50 per Full-time Employee experienced no change from the Fiscal Years 2010-11 or 2011-2012 contribution rate. Interest revenues have been estimated at an average rate of 1% for fiscal year 2010-11 and 0.5% for fiscal year 2012-13. The target fund balance is 200% of paid claims.

This fund was established to account for the monies necessary to self-insure the City's Workers Compensation claims. In January 2011, an actuarial analysis identified the following: - Self-insured retentions (beginning fund balance): FY 10-11 $715,812 (discounted reserves at 90% confidence, Bornhuetter-Ferguson technique*); - Funding (total revenues); discounted funding at 90% confidence); FY 10-11 $729,656, FY 11-12 $759,061, FY 12-13 $789,652 The continuing efforts to reduce frequency of claims and contain claim costs through negotiated discounts on medical expenses and using modified duty return to work resulted in lower overall damages and claims expense.Included in expenses is a line item for prior year claim expense. Professional Fees and Administrative Costs include state-required third party administrative fees and expenses for the discounted medical health provider network. The Insurance expense line includes the state required Self-Insurer Bond, Excess Insurance coverage Premium, Worker's Comp Tax and the 2nd Injury Fund Surcharge.

Funding for upcoming and each year premiums (amounts assessed to departmental budgets) are adjusted to bring the fund balance in line with the projected retentions. Premium amount is divided into departments based on prior year's percentage of use. Premiums for fiscal year 2011-2012 increased $49,478 from the fiscal year 2010-2011 budget. No premium increase was budgeted for fiscal year 2012-2013. Interest revenues have been estimated at an average rate of 1% for Fiscal Year 2012 and 1% for fiscal year 2013. *Bornhuetter-Ferguson technique estimates ultimate losses using a combination of expected losses (payroll x expected loss cost) and loss development techniques

Section 10: Debt Service


10: Debt Service Funds

City of Lee’s Summit Annual Budget FY13

DEBT SERVICE FUNDS The city utilizes three funds to record the receipt and disbursement of monies used to repay principal and interest charges on city issued debt. The following are the three funds used to record this activity: General Obligation Bonds, Northeast Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District Infrastructure Improvement Bonds, and Park Certificate of Participation (COP) Debt Fund. The General Obligation Debt Service Fund is used to account for the annual retirement of bonds issued from 2003 through 2010. Expenditures from this fund include the payment of interest and fiscal agent charges plus the scheduled repayment of the principal balance. The ad valorem tax on real and personal property provides the primary source of revenue to make these semiannual payments. Interest income on investments of the reserve amounts provides the remainder of revenue. The Park COP Debt Service Fund was established to account for the issuance of COPs related to Legacy Park, the Greenway Project, and the Senior Center. This fund receives the revenues generated by the one-fourth cent "Parks & Soils" sales tax. The Northeast Tax Increment Financing District Fund is where incremental property taxes (related to the improvements made on the property after the TIF district was formed) received on the designated parcels within the TIF district are used to make principal and interest payments on the city’s debt issued to construct streets and sanitary sewers in the district. The basis of accounting is the same for both budgeting and GAAP reporting purposes. This requires that the modified accrual method bases, with the revenues being recorded when measurable and available, and expenditures being recorded when the liability is incurred. Revenues susceptible to accrual are sales taxes, economic activity taxes, property taxes and interest revenue.

The Park Certificate of Participation (COP) Debt Service Fund was established to account for the issuance of debt related to the acquisition of land and development of Legacy Park and Greenway Projects. This fund receives the revenues generated by the 1/4 cent "Parks & Soils" sales tax. This sales tax was reduced from 3/8 cent to 1/4 cent in April 2008 as approved by the voters. In 2006, the City issued debt relating to the new plan for the parks system, "Legacy for Tomorrow and Beyond." The amount of money required for debt service on the 2006 COPs during the current fiscal year is retained in this fund, and monies in excess of that amount may be transferred to the city park construction funds. Interest earnings are calculated at 1% for Fiscal Year 2011-12 and 1.25% for 2012-13, based on the retention in this fund of only the monies required for the current year's debt service with all additional amounts being transferred to the City Park Fund 057.
